Cannot remove Aperture synced Photos on iOS 8

Hey,
I had roughly 26k Aperture images synced to my iPhone 5 when I upgraded to iOS 8. Since the upgrade, all of my Events have been placed into a random order (which is extremely frustrating), the Photos app has become unusably slow and I cannot 'remove' the synced photos via iTunes anymore.
Even though I have unticked the Aperture sync option in iTunes, the photos simply won't delete from the iPhone. It looks like I might have to wipe my phone clean and start again.
On top of that, all of the Photos seem to have been merged with my Camera Roll pictures and iCloud backup attempts to backup all 26k images.
Anyone else having similar issues with iOS 8 and synced Aperture/iPhoto libraries?
Thanks,
Darren

Although I have not synced either Aperture or iPhoto images to my phone through iTunes, maybe there is a parallel with syncing images through iTunes from a folder. In that situation, I understand that you actually have to sync an empty folder to the phone if you want to remove the previously synced photos. Might it be similar with Aperture/iPhoto?

Cannot remove a sync group and provisioning never stops

I try to remove my sync group in Azure DataSync , but get a message "Cannot remove this sync group because one or more databases are currently provisioning, re-provisioning, de-provisioning, canceling sync or synchronizing. TracingId=cc4af9b5-f6c5-2ca9-9412-acbaee44f87b"
My sync group is Sync Group ID: b9dfb07f-5415-487d-a6c7-c7caccf473b8_East / Subscription ID: 31e2bcf5-8078-4bf3-8898-ba771ea860ac
And before I try to remove it, it has a trouble that Provisioning never finishes.
The provisioning was adding reference new servers and the provisioning is continuing for more than 10 days.
While removing the sync group, I had deleted all reference database other than the hub database, and applied DeprovisioningUtil.exe to the hub database.
In the sync group, all databases were Azure SQL. The sync group didn't use sync agent.
The hub database seems to have no tables relating datasync like as "_dss" or "_traking" after I applied DeprovisioningUtil.exe.
I had no more idea to do other than waiting, any other ideas?
Best regards,

Hi Kamiyn,
Regarding to the error message and your description, it seems that you tried to remove sync group failed , I assume you only have one sync group, when you used DeprovisioningUtil tool, you should manually clean up all objects by running the deprovisioning
utility from the same folder where the Data Sync Agent gets installed.
Here is a similar issue about this error, you can refer to the post.

Cannot remove this sync group because one or more databases are currently provisioning,

I have a problem with a SYNC group within my development Azure Database.
It been stuck in "processing" state last December and has never recovered.
I have since setup a new Sync Group to sync the data between my cloud database and my local database. The new Sync Group is working properly.
It bothers me that the old one is still out there, and I would just like to remove it, but I get the following error message:
Cannot remove this sync group because one or more databases are currently provisioning,
re-provisioning, de-provisioning, canceling sync or synchronizing. TracingId=fe9d220c-56c7-791f-ac0f-ea26989e02a1
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to delete the failed SyncGroup from Azure?

Hi jstevenson72,
How about using the DeprovisioningUtil tool? With DeprovisioningUtil tool , you can manually clean up all objects by running the deprovisioning utility from the same folder where the Data Sync Agent gets installed.
Besides any of the following can result in a failure to delete a sync group.
• The client agent is offline. Be sure that the client agent is online then try again. Reference :
SQL Data Sync Troubleshooting Guide.
• The client agent is uninstalled or missing.
If the client agent is uninstalled or otherwise missing:
1. Remove agent XML file from the SQL Data Sync (Preview) installation folder if the file exists.
2. Install the agent on same/another on-premise computer, submit the agent key from the portal generated for the agent that’s showing offline.
• The SQL Data Sync (Preview) service is stopped.
1. In the Start menu, search on Services.
2. Click Services in the Programs section of the search results.
3. Find the SQL Data Sync (Preview) Preview service.
4. If the service status is Stopped right-click the service name and select Start from the dropdown menu.
• A database is offline. Check your SQL Database and SQL Server databases to be sure they are all online.
• The sync group is provisioning or synchronizing. Wait until the provisioning or synchronizing process finishes then retry deleting the sync group.
And for Azure issues, I would like to recommend you post the question in the Azure SQL Database forum at
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/azure/en-US/home?forum=ssdsgetstarted. It is appropriate and more experts will assist you.
There is also a similar thread for your reference.

Cannot see Aperture 3 photos in iWeb

I have a huge problem... I am a photographer and am constantly updating my website, however, I cannot see my Aperture 3 photos in iWeb (the folders that I have created over the past few months don't show up at all). I have had to transfer photos from Aperture 3 to my iPhoto library in order to use them in iWeb, which is such a waste of time (and space). Can someone please assist???

If you have not found any problems using DiskUtility, I would suggest that you might try deleting your Aperture preferences file (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2945) then re-open Aperture and set your preferences up again. That may resolve the iWeb issue as well as your Export difficulties.
Let us know what happens.
Cheers!

Syncing photos between ios and Mac

Hi
How to sync photos between Mac and ios .. iPhoto is confusing .. If I create an album on Mac and share it to ios
Through iTunes I won't be able to add or delete photos to it with ios which is strange .. If I use photo stream album
Created on ios I won't be able to add photos for them with my Mac so how to do such a simple task with iPhoto ?

Not sure what you're asking here. The only connection between iphoto for mac and iPhoto for iOS is a name. Other than that they have nothing in common. So, no you can't manage albums created on your Mac with iPhoto for iOS and vice versa.
iPhoto Menu -> Provide iPhoto Feedback
For feature requests.

Syncing photo albums iOS 8 and iPhone 5

Just installed iOS 8 on iPhone 5.
Have selected transfer of certain albums to Photos on iPhone.
Only a random selection have been transferred.
Have tried to delete everything and re-sync. No good. Even when I unselect everything, meaning delete everything and re-load, it still shows 4730 photos (4.14GB) on the iPhone5 for example when I view through the iTunes app when the appropriate appliance is connected by cable, even though deleted everything.
I try to delete again, but they stay there.
Seems okay on iPad2 though.
Help? Ideas?

This all started for me on Ios 8.1 actually , slide to unlock just no longer responding. Now it got WORSE with ios 8.1.1. I have this on an Iphone 5, and Ipad 4 and on my wife's Iphone 5 as well. This has NOTHING to do with your iPhone or iPad but ALL to do with recent IOS updates.
I'm starting to think Apple rather mashes up an update to counteract JB rather then releasing quality upgrades anymore. I am really not interested in buying an Iphone 6 due to all the problems you hear with it, the louzy hardware in it and the fact that it's quite fragile compared to the iPhone 4 and 5. Cutting corners in material used to gain another buck ... where did we hear that before ? Also what's innovating about it ? New camera ? Faster CPU ? And you call tha ta "new" iphone ? LoL
Also please don't get fooled by "restore your iphone from scratch" and bugs will go away, THEY WON'T ! It's just a waste of time.
Anyway, please FIX bugs asap. The phone is starting to get on my nerves.
Regards
Ed

Cannot do wifi sync after update IOS 6 using windows vista pc with itunes 10.7

I cannot do the wifi sync,I am using IPAD 3 with IOS 6.I heard people said to do synchronous wireless.It would work I using Windows Vista,then I using Itunes 10.7.Somebody can help me to solve these problem or give me feedback to solve these problem.

Like many others, most of the the workarounds I tried worked but for awhile only and/or not reliably. After more googling and trial and error, I finally ended up with a somewhat reliable solution using the below 2 changes. (I am running up-to-date Win7 with an Ipad2 and an Iphone5 both on ios 6 + and up-to-date Itunes software on the PC).
1) Disable IPv6 on the wireless adapter (see CKNairb's earlier post)
2) Create a bat file which stops and starts the "Apple Mobile Device" service, then starts Itunes
The bat file can be placed in any dir and a desktop shortcut created to point to it in order to easily start Itunes (right-clicking properties of the shortcut and clicking "Change Icon" will even allow the selection of the Itunes icon to make it look just right :-) )
The bat file should contain these lines:
net stop "Apple Mobile Device"
net start "Apple Mobile Device"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.exe"
Edit accordingly as to whether your Itunes.exe resides in \Program (x86) or \Program.
By starting Itunes using this shortcut/bat file, you will ensure that the Mobile Device service is up and running when Itunes attempts to locate the devices wirelessly - this seems to be the key issue here.
Although it is not 100% reliable, I would say that both devices are detected and synced 90% of the time. (Itunes will always find one of the 2 devices).
Anyways, based on all I have gone through to get this work, I am willing to settle for "almost reliable" solution - hopefully this may work for others as well.
Happy syncing!

Aperture syncs photos taken with iPT4 with smaller resolution

Hello,
I've got a problem. Currently, I'm using the newest version of Aperture to organize my photos. If I import my photos taken with my iPod touch 4th generation, I'll find them in my library with a resolution of 960x720 - exactly how it's supposed to be. But if I sync my photos from Aperture with iTunes back to the iPod, they are 480x360! On the retina display this *****, they are pixelated! Why does Aperture / iTunes scale my photos down? Can I change that so they are at the original resolution on my iPod?
Thanks in advance and sorry for my english (I'm German)!

I can't help you directly but you might want to also post in the Aperture forum since they may also be of help.

Cannot remove pictures from photo library

hi everyone... somebody can help me to delete pictures in photo library?

To remove images in the Photo Library you need to use iTunes.
iTunes puts those images on the iPhonel it syncs them from a source on your computer.
So you need to use iTunes to 'unsync' those images to remove them.
Hope it helps.

Cannot delete iphoto synced photos

Hi people,
Somehow Iphoto has synced more than 2 gigabyte worth of photos from my macbook to my iphone 3gs and there is apparently no way for me to delete them from my phone.
If i try to delete the photos i've taken with my iphone (those located in camera roll) i've only got to press the little bin. But if i try to use the same method on the iphoto imported photos (located in 3 different folders like camera roll) there is no bin.
Anybody else got this problem or got some answer?

Thanks for the answer
But I've been looking for something like a photo tap in itunes but can't seem to find it. The top taps when selecting iphone in itunes are (my itunes is in danish, so i'm not sure what the taps are called in english mind) "overview, info, applications, ring tones, music, film, tv shows, podcasts and itunes-u.
Do you know where to find that photos tap?

Cannot edit Aperture 3 photo in Photoshop elements 10

When I want to edit a photo in Aperture 3 through Photoshop Elements 10, nothing happens. The photo does not show up. It used to work before.

That it never worked right is important to know .
Reset the external editor selection in Aperture following the instructions at the link I posted above.
You should be able to right-click an Image, select "Edit with NamedEditor", edit the copy of your Image that Aperture creates and sends to the external editor, close your file in the editor (do not "Save As"), and end up back in Aperture with your original Image next to your selected duplicated-and-edited Image.
Do you?

IPhoto vs Photos in iOS 8

I am trying to regain some storage on my 16Gig iPad Mini.
I have many pictures in photos I want to delete. However, when I choose "select" and choose photos to delete, the "trash can" is greyed out. I can't figure out how to get rid of these old photos that I have backed up on my computer.
I thought, "Maybe I can delete them in iPhoto?" However, when I tried to open iPhoto, I get the message, "iPhoto is no longer supported in iOS 8. Migrate photos to 'Photos?'"
Should I "migrate" my iPhoto photos to "Photos?" Will I be able to delete them?

If you want to be able to access the photos from iPhoto, migrate. iPhoto is now obsolete and you cannot use it any longer.
But read this first: Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8
And also: Get help finding your Photos in iOS 8
A common reason for being unable to delete photos from your iPhone might be, that the photos have been synced to the device using iTunes. To remove synced photos from iOS devices, simply san again with iTunes, but deselect all events and albums in iPhoto, see this link:

Sync Photos to iPad: Yes or No?

Quite some time ago (3-4 month but probably still under the "Lion" OS), I synced many checked Albums in iPhoto (now '11; version 9.4.2(710.42) from my iMac (now OS X 1o.8.2) to my iPad through iTunes (now 11.0.1 [12]).
When I tried to do it now again (add a new album) I notice that there is no "SYNC' button in the "Photo" tab. However I can check the new album as before.
All a sudden, a notice appeared that said something like : " iTunes does no longer sync Photos - Do you want to keep or remove previously synced photos?" and the oftion to keep or delete.
How do I get future (photo) albums across to my iPad?

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)
